This behavior is pure tyranny and abuse of power, I'm glad I'm not on this tracker.

This is posted on HD-T's forum.

3 day: same speeds, they offered to move me to another server. Fine, maybe this one has some problem they can't solve...
4 day: new server, same speeds. Oh, well, next month we will move on to another provider.
5 day: same shit...
.....
12 day: same shit...
13 day: new shit! someone on the same server burst his quota, two downloading torrents stopped despite the fact that there must be over 60 GB available space allocated to my account.
14 day: another offer to move to yet another server. I agreed, but asked one day to move the torrents from the old to the new server. They refused and deleted my files from the old server simultaneously giving me a new one. Shit! I had a fresh torrent uploading! I requested a refund, they cut my access and canceled the account.

Notes: Look closely at the graphs. hybrid boxes have ~ 100-120 Mbit average upload speed. There are 8-10 users per server, so you may estimate the average upload speed per user yourself.

Personal vendetta then. Bleh.

I'd be pretty pissed off with that lol

but then again i wouldn't ban it at a tracker if i could....post your experience yes...warn users yes....but ban it....hmm

Yes he must be very pissed off understandably but he also should have got a weekly box and tried it out first

Anyway...sounds like someone's telling lies
is it the disgruntled customer or the service provider trying to save face

When I read the thread title I thought this was a joke. Seriously?

A ban should accomplish something good, restricting someone who is a potential threat from entering the site again.
What good does it if they restrict their members from using a specific seedbox just because one member had a problem with them. As it happens to be this member is also a high ranked staff.
I don't understand why you would forbid others to use this host even though they might be quite happy with it. Everybody makes mistakes and the fact that Seed.st's support is incredible rude doesn't help much either, but in my opinion this just badly reflects on HD-T. It doesn't matter who's fault it is.

Will they also create a thread where users post negative reviews and the staff will ban the usage of this service from the site?
What about whole data-centers for one faulty disk?

Come on, grow up, get over it and get a different seedbox host.

What a bunch of douche-bags. Seriously.

I'd rather prune a tracker from my list than replace a seedbox that I'm happy with, especially if it's because the tracker's staff are power tripping on high school drama.

Also--this is why I'm a member of many trackers. Once they go douche I just stop using them.

As of now from what I've read on the forum there, there is no mention of them being banned from the site, however one user did point that out and the higher staff member who has the issue with seed.st did say it was a good idea. As of now the stance appears to be nothing more than the guy telling the community to not used them.

Make a bad review, insert it into a community, wait for them to react, see the company that was thought poorly of lose customer base or worse case go out of business. Doubt that would happen but of course HD-T's staff (well some of them) are pretty arrogant from what I've noticed in my dealings with them.

Although I don't care for seed.st I doubt this will effect them in anyway. If anything it might make an awesome flame war that will be highly entertaining to follow lol.

^^^ So then I suppose this thread has been solved and can now be closed? :)
